Opportunity for everyone

In our first Founders’ Letter, we stated our goal to develop services that improve the
lives of as many people as possible. We’re building on that with a five-year commitment
to award $1 billion in grants and enable 1 million employee volunteer hours, while
continuing to develop products and programs that create opportunity for everyone.

Opportunity to learn

We know that education is the most powerful use of information to improve lives. Our
education products – from Classroom to Chromebooks – benefit more than 70 million
people in 180 countries, while our programs and philanthropic efforts aim to close
the education equity gap through technology, tools, and training that help students
and educators alike thrive.

Bringing virtual reality field trips to schools

Opportunity to succeed

We know that economic mobility lies at the foundation of every productive society. In
addition to offering products like Search, Maps, and YouTube, which help millions of
businesses and individuals get discovered online, we are working to ensure more
people have the skills they need to succeed in a digital world.

Introducing Grow with Google

Helping people prepare for the changing nature of work

Opportunity to be heard

We know that diverse perspectives strengthen us as a society. From products like
YouTube, which amplifies voices and enables more people to engage in the world around
them, to our support of organizations fighting systemic discrimination, we are
committed to building a more inclusive society.
